Fresh Hotel - آثينا

Great location, stayed twice in one week - you can stroll out and visit the public market, very fun. Really great breakfast, nice staff & a good job in renovating what I assume was a standard downtown Athens building into such a nice, trendy hotel. Our first room was top notch, our second had some funky smells from the drainage in the bathroom. Overall, really great value for a centrally located, modern hotel.

The room was clean and brightly lit. The bathroom was huge and I was exceptionally happy that the hotel acceded to my request for a bathroom with a bathtub. The beds were comfy and the pillows were of the right fluffiness. The hotel has a rooftop swimming pool and bar which was nice to chill with friends and the breakfast spread is one of the best I have had.

The hotel was great! Amazing staff! Especially Elene in the reception!!!! She booked all of our restaurants for us and we were always very happy with her choices! Also she reserved a great bouzoukia for us that we loved! She is extremely nice and knowledgable! The rest of the staff was also great and always courteous and very helpful! This along with the cleanliness and comfort of the hotel and not to forget the awesome breakfast that is included made our trip the best!!! Cannot say enough about the staff and especially Elene!!! :))))

A very pleasant hotel. Very helpful staff, they made sure we had a map with the hotel location clearly marked and the locations of the major tourist spots. Everyone spoke excellent English (our Greek is very poor!). Breakfast was very good - always plenty of options and good service. There is a nice bar and pool at the top of the hotel - but the drinks are pricey as you might expect in a hotel (we paid more for two non-alcoholic drinks than we did for an excellent meal later that even). It was about an easy 15 min walk from the central Metro station (Monastakis) - which is on the direct line to the main airport. If you have a small case or suitcase on wheels, you can easily walk to the hotel from the Metro station if you are reasonably fit. Our room only had a shower (no bath) so make sure you request a room type with a bath if this is important. Saying that, the shower was excellent with a nice hand shower and a large rose main shower. The hotel has free wifi (as do many places in Athens) so that was really useful. The local area looked a bit run down, but we walked to and from the hotel at night over the weekend with no problems or any concern about our safety.

Room was very well appointed and comfortable. Great bathroom with luxurious toiletries.Check in friendly and efficient. Good buffet style breakfast. The hotel is a very easy walk from monastiraki and omonia metro stations and the sights of Athens. It is in a 'local' area near to the markets but as a single female traveller I felt very comfortable with walking into the central area of Athens. I would definitely stay again.

We stayed at the Fresh Hotel for 1 night after returning from Santorini mad before flying home. It was the reviews on hotels.com, combined with the good price that made me pick this place. We were not disappointed! Our room was beautiful and modern, the bed super comfortable and the air conditioning very responsive. The free WiFi was also great - fast and easy to access.. The front desk crew were always helpful. The rooftop pool area and restaurant were very nice and the food they serve was delicious! The only tiny complaint I have is that the hot food at the breakfast buffet was more like Luke-warm food, but the fresh orange juice pretty much made up for that. I would highly recommend this hotel for a night (or longer) in Athens.

We stayed at the hotel for one night and was returning a couple days later for another night and was so happy that the staff was so helpful and allowed us to store our luggage with them for a couple of days. The hotel was very modern and clean. The staff was so friendly and always willing to help. would definitely stay here again.

Excellent, could walk everywhere, I saw no problems in the area , the rooftop bar with acropolis views is fantastic

Great hotel - modern, comfortable, great location, good price, great food & pool. We stayed on our way to the Greek islands and it was handily located near the Acropolis, but alos centrally located between the airport where we flew in and the port where we were due to catch a ferry. Roof top restaurant had amazing food. Would definately stay here again. The surrounding neighbourhood wasn't amazing but was not as bad as some of the other posts seem to make out. For Athens standards it was pretty normal!

Reading some other reviews about the location before my stay, I was slightly anxious. However, the location although slightly rundown, felt safe during the day and night. It is just down the road from the greek stock exchange and is only 10 minutes walk from Syntagma Square. The rooms were clean, the showers very good and the view from the top floor bar very good.

Very nice hotel in Athens, within walking distance to Monasteraki and Plaka. Staff was very friendly and helpful. The hotel itself is very modern, clean, and functional. Small swimming pool on the roof, with view over the Acropolis. Only issue: on the edge of a neighborhood that is not too recommended, especially at night - just don't go there and you'll be fine.

Very nice modern hotel in a central location that was only a 15 min walk from most major attractions in central Athens. Very close to the central market. Hotel staff was extremely friendly and helpful with advice. I would stay here again.

Just close enough to walk to Plaka area, for someone who doesn't mind walking. Restaurants and attractions all required a walk, as nothing was very nearby. Helpful staff, clean, and a good breakfast selection.

lovely place, wow, stunning terrasse with a view and a pool, excellent breakfast with more food than you can eat. Perfect location to take a walk close to main attractions.

We very much enjoyed our stay at the fresh hotel. The staff were wonderful and nothing was too much trouble. Such a clean, well presented hotel along with friendly staff " what more could you want". As for the area, yes it looks a little run down and deprived but no ones bothers you and we went out very late at night. Just take care as you normally would in any unfamiliar environment.

We stayed at Fresh Hotel for a week in December. It was very clean and the staff were friendly. We appreciated the traditional cookies that we received every day at the front desk, as well as the spoon sweets that welcomed us to the room the first day. The breakfast buffet is wonderful! There are a lot of food options, and it was a huge plus to the hotel. The neighborhood is within walking distance to the Acropolis, however, it is not directly in Plaka. It is right near the meat and fish market, and the vegetable and fruit markets, which is really neat during the day, but it means that the area is very busy. Overall, I recommend this hotel to others.

I have stayed at Fresh twice now and would have no hesitation in staying again. I love the modern decor, the roof terrace and bar and also the warmth of the lobby (both the reception and the fireside area). People do need to be aware that the surrounding neighbourhood is a little 'dodgy' however. In the daytime it is fine and you are within walking distance of many of the sights. At night stick to taxis however and if you do that, you'll be fine. I think the good value that the hotel offers is a reflection of this and I appreciate that. I will definitely return!

FABULOUS

Hotel is located close to the Acroplis and the main shopping. The staff are friendly and helpful. Our bed was very comfortable and the rooms were clean. Only problem was the shower leaked water everywhere which is quite annoying and the bathroom is tiny. The breakfast is fantastic with fresh frui, fresh bakery items and even freshly squeezed orange juice. The pool area is also fantastic and gives you a great view of the Acropolis. Would definetly recommend this hotel and would stay again without hesitation

I would definitely stay in the Fresh Hotel again. It is centrally located near the city hall and within walking distance of both Omonia Square and Monastiraki Square Square via Athinas Street. The Acropolis is a modest uphill walk from Monastiraki. The view at night of the lighted Acropolis from the hotel's roof is spectacular. Our room was very clean and well appointed, and the included breakfast was excellent. The TV has channels in several languages including English. We can't compliment the staff enough for their helpful attitude. They were always willing to help out (such as finding a private car to transport someone during the transportation strike which happened while we were there) or taking us to a nearby store to get a watch battery. The neighborhood at night can be a little worrisome, but we had no problems. One lady had an encounter with a street person across from the hotel when she arrived, but the staff immediately came to her assistance and got the man on his way and the lady into the lobby without further incident. Our taxi driver said the Fresh Hotel was the best value in Athens and we certainly agree. All in all we were very pleased with our stay at the Fresh Hotel.

Although in the grittier part of Athens, Fresh is conveniently located to two subway stops and the less touristy part of Athens (Psyrri). Fantastic modern design and furnishings. Friendly and knowledgable service. Tasty breakfast buffet. Clean and comfortable. Excellent value.

Room was okay. Nothing special. Bathroom and floors a little run down but clean. Staff was very kind and helpful. Restaurant and bar on the 9th floor is amazing. Great view of the Acropolis in the day and night. Staff is great at the bar/pool/restaurant and very helpful. HOWEVER, hotel is located in a very shady area! Not a great place for a young family or if you are staying alone. There is an adult store right next to the front entrance and another one around the corner. At night, there are ladies soliciting business on the same street. Hotel was fine but locate and area was scary.

A cool oasis in the city centre. A modern hotel with a fantastic roof top pool and restaurant. A real oasis of modern designer comforts inthe centre of the city. Other reviews have questioned the "desirability" of the location, which isnt the smartest, but is great if you want to be in the centre of this bustling city. 5* from me. The staff arevery friendly and could not be more helpful.

Fresh Hotel was both a pleasant surprise and also had some annoyances. The rooms are amazing, expecially the high floor west facing rooms with views of the acropolis and the setting sun. The rooms are clean, stylish, comfortable and safe. The Korres bath products are great. However, the Front Desk staff leaves something to be desired. Checking in took an eternity, and checking out took almost as long. Hire some more staff people! The rooftop pool and bar are great, with exceptional creative cocktails although they cost 11-15 euro each! Overall I would recommend this hotel, but with some reservations about the staff and the sketchy neighborhood!

the hotel offered airport transit and this is one of the reasons why we picked it. we were there during the taxi strike and no pickups were offered. we were told we had to book it in advance when we called to confirm our flight arrival time. there was of course no space available. we were never notified that we had to schedule in advance or that it could be full and we woud be left taking the metro. we also need transit back to the airport for an early morning flight but the earliest available departure was 8am and our flight was at 8.50am so they said they would try and get us other means of transport. i guess they found someone to drive us but it was going to be 55 euros. so we ended up getting up at 5am and taking the metro. the hotel itself was great but the location was very seedy. leaving the hotel at 5.30 for the metro the streets had prostitues and men heckling us. DO NOT BOOK THIS HOTEL IF YOU NEED ANY KIND OF TRANSPORT. they offer it but it is basically unavailable.

This hotel is excellent! I only had a one night stay but i was offered transfer services to and from the port and airport, the room was clean and modern, with a very comfortable bed and amazing pillows!! The facilities are exceptional especially the rooftop pool and cafe with a view of the acropolis! giant cushion sunbeds to lie on and have lunch by the pool made my stay heaven, and the buffet breakfast had everything you can imagine on offer. Would highly recommend to all!!

I know on many sites The Fresh Hotel gets slammed for being in a "sketchy" neighborhood. First of all, the neighborhood is not any more dangerous than any other neighborhood in a major city. If you are a smart traveler with some common sense, you'll be perfectly safe. Secondly, it's not the hotel's fault if you don't like the neighborhood--they can only control what goes on inside their establishment. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful--probably some of the best service I've received from any hotel in any country that I've traveled. The rooftop bar has an unmatched view of the Acropolis and Lykavittos Hill. The hotel is within walking distance of any major attraction within Athens--my wife and I walked from our hotel to Lykavittos Hill--a longer walk, but very fun exploring.

After spending 13 days island hoping in Greece we came back a day before our flight. I guess we chose the Fresh Hotel bc it was our last night and we didnt really care..MISTAKE. We arrived in Athens late from Mykonos and its a pretty far drive from the main port in Athens. Next our room we got reeked of urine. They did give us another room, but the overall feel of the rooms felt very dirty. I dont mind the prostitutes working, but the area is def not a nice area. Breakfast was decent and better than the rooms/hotel. Would not recommend.

Simple, sparse, clean, bright, wonderful personnel, great rooftop bar/dining, and a pool. Views of the Acropolis from the roof. Not the best neighborhood, but the metro is only a 5 minute walk away.

Great hotel, great pool with a view of the Acropolis. Just great really. I have stayed in Athens a number of times & this is the best. I will definitely be back next time.

We stayed over at the Fresh Hotel on our return from Santorini and before flying out the next day for home. Athens itself was quite a jolt after being on a very tourist-friendly island for a week. The taxi driver was a little crazed and the staff at the hotel seemed to be so, as well. They were nice enough but seemed to be very busy (at 11pm at night). The condition of the hotel was nice and fairly modern, same as the room. The most enjoyable part was going to eat at the restaurant on top of the hotel. What a view! The food was great as well as the service. Pool was small but elegant. All in all our rather quick stay with enjoyable enough.

I enjoyed my stay at Fresh Hotel in Athens. It was nice to stay in a nice and clean hotel after walking around Athens which is a pretty dirty place no matter what neighborhood you stay in. The location was good; close to the metro and if you take the tour bus, it passes the Hotel's area 3 times. It was nice to hop on and off the tour bus and not have to sit through the entire tour everytime. Fresh had the best breakfast of my entire 15 day trip to Greece. Free Internet in the room was a plus.

The hotel service was excellent, and staff very friendly and accomodating. Area is not great, and would personally rather pay a bit more for a better area in future.

This is not the first time I stay in this hotel. Not because it is situated really in the heart of Athens, but because my memory of the stuff and and the interior of the rooms was excellent. They even remembered that I stayed there before. If you stay there, don't miss the Panorama bar on the 9th floor. The only trouble I had was to enter the underground garage, as it was very small and if you are with a SUV or something of this kind, it will be impossible for you to enter. Outside the hotel is really impossible to park the car.

The decorations, the breakfast buffet, the suite that we received Room 807 with a huge bathroom and a huge balcony. The service was a 5 star.

Reaaly nice hotel, with very friendly staff. Pool area was cool and excellent view.

Staff was friendly and rooms did the job. However, the location of the hotel is not in the best neighborhood. The hotel is a bit hidden from the subway station and finding it could be a challenge especially since the neighborhood is a bit ghetto.
